[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 506271, member: 1607"] If you are already competent and have a good concept of electrical science and theory, a formal PAT qualification can be acquired easily in a day, but its not worth a fat lot in the real world of employment. Whereas establishing if an installation is satisfactory or unsatisfactory for continued use, (the purpose of an EICR), requires someone with a good knowledge, understand and experience, of current and previous wiring regulations. Someone able to do EICR's should have a comprehensive understanding of all the content of BS7671Guidance Note 3. Do you have a copy?
